I would shift to femoral and I prefer doing something called "Amplazting" of a JR guide catheter(looping the JR guide) like this in such scenarios..always works fr me especially when the RCA ostium is nasty.

But AMPLATZING of JR will cause the same issue and runs the same risk of ostial Dissection of a dominant RCA ..

Probably a XB RCA or a 7F JR with GEC- usually I always do it with XB RCA instead of AL it has shorter curve

Great options .. But GEC ? For dominant RCA's and Ostial and proximal diseases is it the best option to use GEC to reach distal RCA if hardware doesn't track in a tortuous anatomy ?

Ostial RCA dissected and vessel closed

No no no .. There is a very peculiar thing happening which was stored on this florosave loop which almost RULES OUT DISSECTION WITH ABRUPT VESSEL CLOSURE ..

Suspicious prox dissection while pulling back diagnostic catheter .can see dye stasis in upper portion of RCA..... interesting to know how case was managed.

No dissection .. but u risk one when such thing has happened and u give dye injection

Amplatz confirmed the ostial disease

It's like Carabellos sign but for coronaries 😄 for those curious:

Sorry for the lack of spaces / activity folks 😞 Unfortunately, my wife has been dealing with some very painful stomach issues. This has required us to go to the emergency room twice now, a GI, other doctors, and a slew of tests. So far they are still not sure what is wrong with her health. The medical costs have piled up once again (seems we have been cursed for the past year), and its getting extremely tough. To pay for all these medical procedures and doctors, we might not be able to make rent this month.. this causes further stress, which just exacerbates the entire thing. I don't like to beg for for help without giving anything back. Instead, if you'd like to help, please consider buying a Crypto Mechas NFT / Card collectible.
